i need to generate public and private key pairs for wireless nodes in a networki need to deploy a programm that produces rsa public and private key for wireless nodes in a netwok so that they can send signed messages to other nodesim using network simulator 3 NS-3 for testing my new protocol but i am stuck at generating key pairssince mac address is different for different nodes . can we can generate unique keys for a particular node based on mac address(as a seed may be) ?,so that generated keys doesnt conflict with other node keysbut i dont know how to do thatthe algorithm (programm) deployed on every node should generate key pairs for that nodecan u guys help me solving this problem ?ps: using CPP

all i need to generate public and private keys for a node(here node is simulated computer or router) .. since there are number of nodes we have generate keys so that no two nodes have same key pairsfirst of all i dont know how to generate public and private key pairs for a nodeso can u help me generating keys for a node and also no two nodes should have same key pairs

Well, you could create a program to generate the keys for you.If you are talking about keys such as RSA pub/priv keys, linux has a command for that.

Merged topic. No need to have two of the same threads floating around. While I do agree with the posts falling under the two categories, it's really just not necessary. Anyone who checks the active topics page will see it no matter what category it's in.
